ONE HAWAIIAN HOMESTEADER CALLING OHA TO ACCOUNT ON “VOICES OF TRUTH - ONE-ON-ONE WITH HAWAI`IʻS FUTURE"

"From Beneficiary To Benefactor - A Visit With Germaine Meyers"
Nanakuli on O`ahuʻs west side, with the highest concentration of native Hawaiians on earth, is where Germaine Meyers was raised and has lived her entire life. As a Nanakuli Hawaiian homestead lessee and beneficiary of the Office of Hawaiian Affairs, she became upset that Hawaiians there have been waiting for decades for help from OHA. Realizing someone had to stand up and be the voice of Nanakuli Hawaiians is what transformed Germaine into a beneficiary advocate at OHA meetings to make sure those in her community were not forgotten. Join us in our amazing visit with Germaine as she shares with us her journey of becoming that voice of advocacy and reminds us all how one person can make a huge difference -Watch It HereMONDAY, July 23rdAt 6:30 PM –Maui – Akaku, Channel 54
